Differential expression of certain genes during somatic embryogenesis in leaf explants of Cichorium intybus

ABSTRACT: In Cichorium intybus, macroscopic and histological modifications were identified during in vitro cell reactivation and morphogenesis events. The relationships between these modifications and transcript profiles of genes were investigated. Two chicory genotypes derived from the Hungarian landrace Koospol, were tested: K59 is a responsive genotype (embryogenic), as it undergoes cell de- and re-differentiation that leads to somatic embryogenesis (SE). C15 is an unresponsive genotype (nonembryogenic), unable to express this morphogenetic pattern. Previously studies showed that addition of beta-D-glucosyl Yariv reagent (BGlcY), a synthetic phenyl-glycoside that specifically binds arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs), to the culture medium blocked somatic embryogenesis in chicory root explants in a c
